Overclock page updates
Now the Overclock page displays not captions to the names of parameters, but icons for better user experience. In future versions of the application it will be possible to sort parameters by these icons and there will even be a search by parameters!
Still undecided on what to choose?
Maximum performance, unique features, multilingual support, complete customization, and ultimate control over your device — all in one app. Why settle for outdated, buggy, and barely functional software with limited settings, terrible design, and no community care?
Say goodbye to mediocrity and hello to Saku Overclock! Switch profiles with hotkeys, customize your themes, monitor performance in games or from the tray, and enjoy a powerful recommendation system for optimal settings.
Don't let your device suffer. Choose Saku Overclock — where innovation meets perfection!
THATS ALL?
Don't think that I'm not developing a project, I'm doing it every day for you friends, but so far I can't make a stable update because there are too many changes, but we're getting close to release!
I hope you will appreciate my work as your star ⭐ , thank you!

Saku Overclock 1.0.17.0 Release Candidate 8
Saku Overclock 1.0.17.0 Release Candidate 8
Highlights:
- Improved application auto-update system
- Better Overclock page: precise control - now you can control all aspects of overclock from convinient number boxes, you can simply press more or less button or type your value from keyboard instead of using sliders. You even can set value more than maximum! Note: For safety I set limits for Curve Optimizer Number Boxes.
- Fixed bug when TrayMon and RTSS options on Settings page aren't hiding properly
- Added Suggests & Fixes on Main page Guide section with links to Github
- Core Performance Boost (Turbo Boost) Option fix
- Fixed bug with the "notification icon" (no notifications icon) and "unable to fetch changelog" icon not appearing
- Set default app size to size from all GitHub screenshots. Tiny and minimalism
- Translation fixes
Precise control
In fact, a lot of people asked me to do this, but I didn't dare before, because it could violate copyrights, because it looks like a solution from UXTU, but I implemented it in my own way and, it seems to me, even better. You can control values by sliders, by more and less buttons and by entering own value from keyboard. You can set values above the limits but not for Curve Optimizer options. It's just for safe.
Auto-Update page
While update is available - app will show you this page. You should update app to latest version and can do it there.
Fixed app size
App size was incorrect on Full HD+ monitors without HiDPI, now app is showing correctly and has fixed size as on all Github screenshots
Before
Now
Suggests on Main Page
Now you can easily access to fixes & tips from Github according to my app.
In Guide and More sections
Core Performance Boost (Turbo Boost) Option fix
Now this setting always turns it on and off, before it worked differently, through the Windows power supply settings. Now this parameter directly changes the processor's MSR so that it does not use turbo states. Now everything is working as it should have originally
Fixed No notifications icon not appearing
Hotkeys settings
Still in Beta. Work in progress. All hotkeys are working
THATS ALL?

Saku Overclock 1.0.12.0 Release Candidate 4

Curve Optimizer
About Curve Optimizer:
Its extremely dangerous SMU command, Curve Optimizer on AMD Ryzen, which can change voltage/frequency curve with custom coefficient from user. A coefficient its int value from -100 to 100, but safe values are from -50 to 30, cuz above can be weird problems with performance and temperatures, and also with CPU remaining life.
##SMU Funtions manager
Manage common SMU functions to get maximum performance

Profile switcher
You can easy switch with your profiles (BETA) on any app pages! Now it can have some bugs...
ERROR?
The taskbar (profile switcher in taskbar) is not working quite correctly right now, I am well aware of this, so please do not write to me about it.
ABOUT INSTALLATION
Please REMOVE previous app version before installing this ones but before that DISABLE app autostart in settings page. Previous version is UWP packed ".appx" app but this ones is UWP Win-32 ".exe" app. Roughly speaking, the application has switched to a slightly different architecture and I will no longer upload its ".appx" version here. Now certificate is useless. Hehe thanks for understanding.
